Hey guys! How have you been? Is it hot where you are?! Because I think I am about to literally melt. To start with, in case you were wondering, my goals totally flopped this month! I have been doing a lot better at drinking water and I’ve almost entirely cut out soda which is a […]

The Mother Runnin’ Truth
To start out with, I opened up WordPress to write a new post because I was (finally) feeling motivated to get caught up on here and I realized I have only written one singly, lonely post this entire year that isn’t a Monday Miles update. Holy guacamole y’all. Naturally I got to wondering why on […]
